Benefits of technology

[0007]It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide an information processor, a game program, and a game control method capable of causing a player to recognize the types of symbols displayed on a screen at a glance.

[0010]According to the above configuration, by displaying a character corresponding to a specific symbol outside the symbol display area where a plurality symbols are displayed, it is possible for a player to recognize at a glance that a specific symbol is displayed in the symbol display area.Thereby, it allows the player to smoothly execute a game including the series of processes, so there is an advantage that the possibility of being able to induce the player to execute the game can be increased.

[0014]According to the above configuration, it is determined whether or not a specific symbol is rearranged among a plurality of rearranged symbols for each column, and as a result of the determination, if the specific symbol is rearranged, a character corresponding to the specific symbol is displayed at the upper of the column where the specific symbol is rearranged and outside the symbol display area. Thereby, it is possible to cause a player to recognize at a glance which of the columns the specific symbol is rearranged, depending on whether or not the character is displayed.Thereby, it allows the player to smoothly execute a game including the series of processes, so there is an advantage that the possibility of being able to induce the player to execute the game can be increased.

[0024]According to the above method, it is determined whether or not a specific symbol is rearranged among a plurality of rearranged symbols for each column, and as a result of the determination, if the specific symbol is rearranged, a character corresponding to the specific symbol is displayed at the upper of the column where the specific symbol is rearranged and outside the symbol display area. Thereby, it is possible to cause a player to recognize at a glance which of the columns the specific symbol is rearranged, depending on whether or not the character is displayed.Thereby, it allows the player to smoothly execute a game including the series of steps, so there is an advantage that the possibility of being able to induce the player to execute the game can be increased.

[0028]According to the above method, it is determined whether or not a specific symbol is rearranged among a plurality of rearranged symbols for each column, and as a result of the determination, if the specific symbol is rearranged, a character corresponding to the specific symbol is displayed at the upper of the column where the specific symbol is rearranged and outside the symbol display area. Thereby, it is possible to cause a player to recognize at a glance which of the columns the specific symbol is rearranged, depending on whether or not the character is displayed.Thereby, it allows the player to smoothly execute a game including the series of processes, so there is an advantage that the possibility of being able to induce the player to execute the game can be increased.

[0029]The present invention can provide an information processor and a game control method capable of causing a player to recognize the types of symbols displayed on a screen at a glance.

Problems solved by technology

However, even though different types of symbols are similar in appearance shape and color, there is a case in which it is difficult to distinguish at a glance.
